This went over my head the other day, but today I realized that Abby from Wife From Scratch had given me a Versatile Blogger Award this month. What’s that? I don’t truly know, but I know that I get to post this…

Along with the award, I have to answer a few questions…

1. Why did you create this blog?
I started this blog because I needed a hobby after we got married. I was waiting for our computer to be fixed and didn’t have much to do that I was consistent with, so I decided to start a blog. It’s a place for me to write about my thoughts, things I like, my life and to “meet” other bloggers.

2. What kinds of blogs do you follow?
I follow a lot of blogs – right now I have 428 new items in my Google Reader! I need to catch up! I mainly follow newlywed blogs, food blogs and home blogs.

3. Favorite make-up brand?
I buy all my makeup from CVS or Target but right now I have really been into Physicians Formula. Some of their products are organic/all natural and they use recycled materials for their packaging. However my favorite mascara is Maybelline Lash Stiletto!

4. Favorite clothing brand?
If I could exclusively shop at brand name stores I would stick to Banana Republic, New York & Company and Ann Taylor Loft. However, my pocketbook is not that large so I stick to whatever I can find. Some of my cutest outfits are from cheap-y places like Charlotte Russe. Don’t hate.

5. Indispensable makeup product?
This is a tough one. I’m going to go with my mascara that I mentioned above. I also couldnt live without my undereye concealer. One side is yellow which masks my dark circles and the other side is skin tone to cover up the yellow. I would probably be saying blush right now but my trick is to just pinch my cheeks until they turn red! (seriously, it works)

6. Favorite color?
Blue or green – so maybe turquoise?

7. Favorite perfume?
All time favorite is Clinique Happy. Runner up is Ralph Lauren Blue.

8. Favorite film?
All time favorite is Forrest Gump. That movie has everything a movie needs. And I hope to look like Robin Wright Penn when I’m her age!

9. What country would you like to visit and why?
I would like to visit Spain, France, The Netherlands and Greece right now. We are planning a trip to the first three for this fall – let’s hope we can make it work!

10. Would you rather forget to put mascara on one eye or forget blush on one side of your face?
Definitely forget half a side of blush. Blush can easily be wiped off with a wet towel and it comes off on its own throughout the day. I also would be able to pinch the other cheek to make it match. My eyes look completely different with and without mascara so I would just look like a crazy drunk clown if I had only one eye of mascara!

Well, that was fun! Now that you’ve learned a little more about me…you should go check out the 7 blogs that I’ve recently discovered…

We have a likeness of turquoise and Forrest Gump in common. I’ve worn Clinique Happy before but haven’t heard of Ralph Lauren Blue – will have to visit a store and try a tester. If you visit Spain, France and Greece at the same time, as they’re all in the Mediterranean so in the same kinda area, it maybe easier.

Forrest Gump is the best!! You should definitely try Ralph Lauren – all of their fragrances are great! I forgot another one of my favorites is Banana Republic Jade. Hmm I might just have to do a post about this! We’re gonna do Greece at a separate time because we know we’ll want to spend 2 weeks there! THanks for the tips 🙂
